Architectural Information System as instruments to plan, represent, defend, communicate and promote the architectural heritage.
This is the focus of the II E-Arcom Congress (Architectural Information System). Consequently to the large attendance during the 2004 edition, based on the overall topics of communication and development of Information System applied to cultural heritage, we think it’s important to restrict the interest area to the Architectural Information System supporting (in different ways) the architectural heritage. The aim is to keep the partecipaton open to the largest number of scholars, researcher, market actors, especially the youngest ones.
In the same way of the 2004 edition, the congress would be an open window to transform itself in a meeting place suitable to excange experience among consolidated operators, technologies outlooks in the field of Information System applied on architecture and new economical necessities that could find instruments for the achievement and growth of itself.

“Digital technologies emphasize the memory exteriorization process that begun with the invention of writing and they contribute to its collectivization.”
Pierre Lévy
